Initial impressions of my first big purchase of egoT + cartos and juice

[vicsan]

UPDATE: Ok I have started getting the leaking problem!!! Damn it!! The atty is leaking from the thread side and everytime i unscrew the battery now there is a drop on the battery connector. Also the entire device is getting slimed up, which is inturn getting juice on my fingers and hence on my iPhone screen! This sucks! I still like the vapor most from the tanks.

So I think I am going to try out a few more cartos and research tanks a bit. Am ordering the Echo cartos from HC that Hildicat recommended, and then am hoping to get and try out a Mod (or 2?). I have looked into some mods and have started a thread with my findings here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/mods-discussion/253960-these-mods.html

Looks like this is going to be a more involved and expensive hobby than what I first thought!

About Liquids, I have ordered about a dozen new flavors to try out from HC as well as 200ML of HC - RY4

Great review Darco! I'm glad you like the eGo-T system! I like it too and just started vaping the Mega DCC this week and am loving it! Now, for the leaking tank...change to a new tank. Did you buy extra empty tanks? If not, add those to your next order! Order 3-4 boxes of them. I RARELY have leaks from my tanks, but my husband does all the time...don't know why, but he does. I saw you posted a GotVapes link up above...I just ordered some of their new Grande tanks for the eGo-T and can't wait to try them. Also...check out the STARDUST on GotVapes: GotVapes VISION eGo Stardust 1.4ml Top Coil Carto 2.5-2.7 ohm [gv-visionstardust-2.5] - $7.95 : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more out of stock right now, but you can sign up on the Stardust product page to be notified when they are back in stock. They have gotten FANTASTIC reviews. They are worth a try! I think they will be back in stock by the end of the month.
Here are the Grande tanks: VISION Grande 5ml : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more

Best of luck to you! Enjoy your new toy!

darco, Great review, summary, journaling...

I stumbled on this review of a VV eGo type 650/900 mAh setup (with LED for battery) on YouTube. The unit also came from healthcabin. Additionally, the reviewer has a very interesting (3.5ml) Clearomizer on it. Good price on the VV. Expensive for the clearomizer, but maybe worth it for the easy clean/fill clearomizer - which would make things like a Tank, that don't leak!

Good Luck!

Great review, I have the ego t type a and type b. I'm with you, I like the tank better than carto's also. I tend to use the type b more than the type a. Now I have to get the type c and try that one out.

Thanks Vicsan, I have been looking for those tanks too, Gotvapes call them stardust, somewhere else I saw them they were called CE4+ I think they are made by royalsmokers China, and most of the Chinese sites still havent listed them. I am guessing its their long new year celebrations thats holding it back from filling the market Will surely try em once they are available. The Grande tanks look too bulky for my pockets though.

Thanks PaporPlas, glad you like my blabbering I did try out a similar (same?) tank from here: 3.5ml Clear Giant Cartomizer V2 (Upgraded) for 510/eGo [Disposable] - $6.00 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail-- and found them to be pretty good. Probably the best vapor quality of all the stuff I tried. However, they make the device really huge and since they dont screw to / cover the outside threads of the ego, the join feels quite fragile. I see that HC and other sites are selling ego collars for these now, they wernt around a few days back when I ordered these tanks.

The VV seems to be pretty cool, will check them out soon. I decided to head towards the big battery mods before I get into VVs, and ordered myself a Reo Grand GG stealth and after spending a lot of time in the classifieds section, got hold of a GG UFS to go with the stealth. I am really looking forward to the UFS as it seems to be the 'best tank system out there'

Hi Darco... I absolutely envy you....you own just about all the right gadgets , that I'm going gaga over since the past 1 month but unable to procure. I dont know anybody in India who supplies , all the different types of joyetech models...like u own the B type Attys , I love those over the A type, cause of the cylindrical shape instead of the conical one. Am also a little reluctant ordering overseas as it takes a whole lotta time. Currently am smoking "Steamlite" they provide great service and good enuff e-liquid. tried few others too in india,. not that great..... can you please drop an e-mail to me it's ... since you are a veteran and have tons of knowledge in the field, I have tons of questions for you lol... and you are also geographically closest to me. please e-mail am waiting anxiously..
